Strathcarrick House, Heights Of Inchvannie, Strathpeffer, Ross-Shire, IV14

SITUATION
Strathcarrick House is in the scattered crofting township of Heights of Inchvannie near Strathpeffer. The property is in a beautiful setting with spectacular, panoramic views stretching from the Cromarty Firth in the east to the mountains of the west.

The surrounding countryside is unspoilt and as well as providing a habitat for rare native wildlife,
is ideal for the outdoor enthusiast. There is a wide range of walks and mountain bike trails,
challenging mountain climbs, and fishing for salmon and trout on local rivers, while the west coast, famous for its stunning coastline and sandy beaches, is within easy reach.

Strathpeffer expanded with the arrival of the railway in Victorian times when visitors came to
take the famous spa waters. Today the village is popular for its handsome architecture, sense
of community and as a base from which to enjoy the area with its easy access to Inverness and
the west and east coasts. The village has a small supermarket, highly regarded primary school,
restaurant, hotels and a modern doctors’ surgery. The market town of Dingwall is just a ten minute
drive away and has a wider range of shops and amenities including an modern secondary school,
while Inverness, about 20 miles away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with
regular flights to the south and Europe.

DESCRIPTION
The property comprises a decrofted house and garden ground with approximately 4.45 acres of
owner occupied croft land and a modern multi-purpose shed. The house was completed in around
2010 and has been built and finished to a very high standard with solid oak interior finishings, with a semi-open plan interior which takes advantage of the stunning views and extends the sense of space into the landscape. There is a double height ceiling in the sitting room and galleried landing and this, combined with the extensive use of glass, fills the house with natural light, while also increasing solar gain.

The integrated garage on the west side of the house has been converted to create a gym, gun
room, boot room and larder, but could easily be re-instated as a garage. The property has solar
panels which heat the hot water and the shed has solar panels which is resold back to the grid.

GARDEN
The property is approached from the public road, a driveway over which the owners have a right
of access leading to a gateway and a parking area at the side of the house.

The decrofted garden is laid mainly to grass with a generous decked balcony made from composite
surrounded by glass balustrade with play area.

CROFT LAND
The croft land extends to approximately 4.45 acres and is divided into a number of grass fields,
currently used for grazing horses.
